Heat Recovery Ventilation (HRV) Systems Model FC80HRV

HRV systems offer a balanced approach to fresh air ventilation

The unique dual-stream airflow design of Field Controls’ HRV keeps outgoing stale air separate from incoming fresh air and completely rejuvenates the air throughout your entire home up to eight times a day. The Field Controls HRV systems features a patented aluminum core which efficiently transfers heat from outgoing stale air to incoming fresh air. Our Heat Recovery Ventilator lets you enjoy an energy efficient home without breathing harmful indoor fumes from paint, plastics, carpets, adhesives, and household products, or lingering pet odors or moisture that causes mold.

HRV systems are recommended for colder climates. The Heat Recovery Ventilation system is ideal for colder, northern climates. The Energy Recovery Ventilation system is designed for the hot, humid southern climates. Either system can be used in the southwest and California, depending on local conditions.

Field Controls HRV or ERV systems are available six models that range from 40 cfm to 250 cfm to ensure energy efficiency with optimal effectiveness. All HRV/ERV models meet or exceed ventilation standard ASHRAE 62.2. For light commercial applications, Field Controls offers four HRV or ERV models featuring the DuoTrol™ balancing system and high performance motors that range from 550 to 1,200 cfm.

The Polypropylene HRV Core is designed to maximize airflow and performance. The core is constructed from a composite of polypropylene materials that allows latent heat transfer from one airstream to another while preventing cross-contamination. The ERV Enthalpy Core advanced heat and humidity exchanger is superior to existing paper based cores, and is manufactured from a durable polymer membrane that enables energy recovery systems to increase their total efficiency, operate in extreme climates, and ensure the cleanest air possible.

What is the difference between an HRV and an ERV? HRVs and ERVs are similar systems in that both supply air to the home and exhaust stale air while recovering energy from the exhaust air in the process. The primary difference between the two is that an HRV transfers heat while an ERV transfers both heat and moisture.
